The dusk sunlight slanted into the woods, and the five of them, Shang Zhen, were walking dully in the woods.
In the end, Shang Zhen did not bury his third brother Li Fushun according to his own ideas.
The reason here is mainly due to Chen Hanwen's persuasion.
What Chen Hanwen said is, I understand your feelings very well, but have you ever thought about it, it is unrealistic for you to bury your third brother!
As for why it's not realistic? Chen Hanwen gave Shang Zhen a detailed analysis.
Now it is their Northeastern Army that has lost the battle, and it is a huge defeat.
You must know that in this battle, Zhang Lianjie's camp was originally on the alert, or in other words, it was soy sauce.
They were all beaten like this, so you can imagine what the main force was beaten by the Japanese army.
It is the Japanese army's business to clean up the battlefield after losing the battle.
No one knows what the Japanese army will do with the bodies of those fallen anti-Japanese officers and soldiers.
The Japanese army is cleaning the battlefield, you can't just collect the corpses, can you?
This was still a big battle. So many people died. It was dark after the Japanese army cleaned the battlefield. So do you know what the Japanese army would do with those corpses?
What's more, you can't find your brother in the dark, and you don't have a flashlight in your hand. But even if you have a flashlight in your hand, would you dare to use it in dark weather?
I understand your desire to bury your third brother, but should we only bury your third brother?
Our company commander, our platoon commander, including the commanders of these two brothers (referring to Qian Chuan'er and Er Hanzi), won't those brothers who have died in battle not be buried?
How can we get through this when we don’t have anything to eat?
It should be said that Chen Hanwen's explanation was reasonable and he left Shang Zhen speechless.
Finally, Chen Hanwen said that when a soldier dies on the battlefield, this is his fate!
Since we want to fight the Japanese, we may die one day. Do we still expect others to collect the bodies?
Chen Hanwen was worthy of being a scholar and spoke eloquently. In the end, Shang Zhen could only silently glance at the direction of the battlefield and walk to the southwest.
Shang Zhen and the other five were not walking very fast now, naturally because they were hungry.
Hou Kanshan, who was walking at the front, glanced at the four people around him and finally stopped. He reached out and took out a piece of dry food from his pocket and then looked at the four people.
Hou Kanshan didn't speak, he just spread the piece of dry food in the palm of his hand.
What he meant was obvious.
I'm just a piece of dry food, what do you think I should do?
Shang Zhen and the four of them all looked at the piece of dry food.
That's a steamed bun.
Nowadays, the steamed buns are definitely not as white as snow. Many of the noodles are ground using donkey-pulled stones in a stupid way, and there will be wheat skin on them.
And this piece of steamed bun was stained with dirt after its owner, Hou Kanshan, rolled around during the battle.
Despite this, this piece of steamed bun still gave everyone a feeling of acidity in their stomachs.
"You can do it yourself, I don't believe you can't find a villager!" After Qian Chuan'er said this, he walked forward.
Now that Qian Chuan'er said this, Erhanzi, who had always been Qian Chuan'er's follower, swallowed his saliva and followed him.
Erhanzi felt that he should be the least hungry among the five people, just because he was the strongest. A strong person often gets hungry faster than a weak person.
But no matter how hungry he is, he still has to stay consistent with Qian Chuan'er.
Of course Shang Zhen is also hungry, and he even knows that he will only be hungrier than Er Jiazi, because for some reason he has been a big eater for some time.
But as for Hou Kanshan’s food, no matter how hungry he is, he won’t eat it!
Just when Chen Hanwen passed by Hou Kanshan, Hou Kanshan broke the piece of dry food in half and handed half of it over.
Hou Kanshan naturally understood that Qin Hui still had three friends.
He could see it now. Although Qian Chuan'er and Er Hanzi didn't talk much to him, they had fought alongside Shang Zhen.
The three of them are in a group, and he must befriend someone else. Otherwise, wouldn't he be too isolated in this temporary small group?
Chen Hanwen glanced at Hou Kanshan gratefully, reached out and took the half-laden bun, and the two of them ate it while walking behind.
The sound of two people eating steamed buns was not loud.
As the saying goes, "When others are hungry, it is also a virtue for you to eat without complaining"!
The five people continued to march in the woods against the mottled tree shadows under the setting sun, but they were even hungrier!
Needless to say, Shang Zhen, Qian Chuan'er and Er Hanzi had nothing to eat, but Hou Kanshan and Chen Hanwen, who each ate half a steamed bun, seemed to use the half steamed bun to draw out the gluttons in their stomachs. It was really a kind of The feeling of hunger.
After they walked for nearly half an hour, the front suddenly became clear.
At this moment, Hou Kanshan and Chen Hanwen, who were walking behind, heard a cheer from Qian Chuan'er and Er Hanzi in front.
"What's wrong?" Chen Hanwen.
"There are villages!" Erhanzi replied.
"Let's go get something to eat!" Qian Chuan'er said happily.
At this time, Erhanzi asked naively: "Chun'er, do you have money?"
This question is really a bit silly.
Hou Kanshan, who was walking behind, wanted to have fun.
I am a soldier and it doesn’t cost me anything to eat in restaurants in the city. What will I spend when I go to the countryside?
So Hou Kanshan said something, but he never thought that what he said was exactly the same as what Qian Chuan'er said. The two of them said almost at the same time: "I have a gun!"
…
When only the last trace of red was left on the western skyline, the sky had basically turned dark.
Shang Zhen and the five of them, whose stomachs were already full, were already lying on the hay bed outside.
That was the grass they pulled from the haystack of the house where they exchanged food.
When Shang Zhen heard Hou Kanshan and Qian Chuan'er say "I have a gun" at the same time, he thought they were going to use the gun to grab food.
It's a bit far to say that the soldiers and bandits are a family, but if stragglers like them who have lost the battle really don't have food, Shang Zhen believes that, let alone others, Hou Kanshan will definitely be able to use a gun to grab food. Activities.
But in the end, the food they obtained was not snatched with guns, nor was it given to them because the people in the team said they were an anti-Japanese team. It was obtained by Qian Chuaner with a captured rifle!
What is Northeast? Northeast refers to the place where the so-called invasion of Guandong was originally located. The folk customs are already tough. Obviously, the family who gave them food in exchange did not mind having an extra rifle in their home.
Shang Zhen doesn't know how much money it would cost to sell a gun in the Northeast nowadays, but in his opinion, it's not an exaggeration to exchange a gun for a big fat pig, right?
"I said Qian Chuanzi, can you please tell me why we lost the battle this time!" Hou Kanshan, who already thought we were familiar with each other, said Qian Chuan'er.
Not to mention Hou Kanshan, even the survivors Shang Zhen and Chen Hanwen couldn't figure out how they could win the battle and then lose it so miserably.
Hou Kanshan had asked Qian Chuan'er about it on the way here, but everyone was hungry and tired at the time, and Qian Chuan'er was not in the mood to answer his question.
Now that everyone had eaten and drank enough, they could naturally talk about serious things, but Hou Kanshan didn't notice Qian Chuan'er frowning in the darkness.
Of course Qian Chuan'er didn't like Hou Kanshan calling himself "Qian Chuanzi".
Qian Chuan Zi, of course, refers to copper coins threaded into a string.
But the problem is that in the Northeast, Qianchuanzi does not just refer to the bunches of copper coins, but also refers to a kind of insect.
That kind of bug is called a centipede.
Centipedes are one of the traditional five poisons, the other four being snakes, scorpions, centipedes and spiders.
Centipedes are a type of centipede. Because they have many claws on both sides, they look like copper coins.
However, compared with Shang Zhen, Qian Chuan'er was at least a veteran. After all, he tolerated Hou Kanshan's rudeness. He began to tell the story slowly.
